According to Jeffs registrar site they are one in the same. Sales Code F8 ..... Paint Code L37W/39C all seem to equate to Midnight Blue Met https://968register.org/production-data/exteriorcolors/

from the registry

"You will also note in the chart that certain colors have multiple paint codes. That is due to Porsche changing to “water-based” paint formulas during the 968’s production run and utilizing a different paint code."

The exterior is finished in Grand Prix White with a raised body-colored rear spoiler, and additional equipment includes a power-operated roof panel, and pop-up headlights, the latter of which has a small stress crack when opened as shown in the gallery below.

Early 1992 so it has the recessed hood badge as well very rare as I have personally seen 3 of those hoods get parted!

I'm surprised that nobody posted the 8K beauty on BAT right now. Too bad it will never be driven more than a few thousand miles (probably less to keep it under 10K) for the rest of its life.

Garage Queens always get top dollar. With 6 days to go, already at 60K. Is 100K going to be the gavel?

Are those Cup1 rims?

those are the standard 16" rims, not the 17" optional Cup 1's.

When I bought my coupe it had 10 times the miles, but I paid 1/10 of this(actually slightly less).

Guess I got a good deal?

Clearly you did. $164K is stupid money. Don't get me wrong, I love the cars, but Club Sports sell for less than that. Destined to sit in a climate controlled warehouse and never be used as intended. One reason that it's hard for true enthusiasts to acquire cars these days.

Yes I bet in 10 years that car still has an 8 with 4 digits on the odometer.
